Black Sail

Main Tower, tenth floor, a luxurious banquet hall.

Blood splatters adorned all the high-end furnishings, a murder scene within a murder scene.

Mo’er’s surprise gift, the "Chimera" he had crafted, even included living humans. Under the activation of Life Alchemy, coupled with the suppression of rejection reactions by potent drugs, these living beings endured unimaginable pain and were forced to attack Celeste and Ben.

Clearly, Mo’er had picked the wrong opponents.

Ben, being fully capable of defending himself, while Celeste, the general in charge of investigating Fafna, possessed top-tier talents. At her age, her swordsmanship had already reached a profound level.

Though they were living humans, Celeste was resolute in ending their suffering. Her short sword blossomed into silvery white roses, swiftly sealing their throats upon contact with blood. The moment the wounds appeared, their life signs were completely gone. Her mastery of Elemental Magic, akin to "concentration," scattered Wind Blade flame bullets on a large scale.

Bodies of human-shaped monsters lay helter-skelter in the banquet hall, with blood exceeding the height of their boots.

Ben, holding a deck of cards, fanned them out then combined them back into a stack. "This woman is truly reliable."

"Stop playing hide and seek now."

Celeste, tired of this game of hide-and-seek, noted that Fen’s Spiritual Body had already been destroyed by the human-shaped monsters.

She needed to eliminate this troublesome person swiftly, then go to support the man with the disfigured face, also very interested in the so-called secret of the tower.
